Solar Washing Machine Single Frequency Driver Rerun 2

Rerun of the uni1 driver - part2 (uni5 and uni6)

We want to measure the phase difference between oscillations of Bz. and vz i.e. the vertical component of the B field and the plasma velocity respectively. With the recent series of models this was challenging for the following reasons:

• One of the drivers had multiple frequencies
• Driver had a damping factor
• The first model run uni1 did not have a damping factor but the amplitude was too low

The model amplitude was set to aa=10.0

• For model uni5 amplitude set to aa/2 i.e. aa=5
• For model uni6 amplitude set to 2aa ii aa=20

The revised input files for this run are linked on git below

git commit id8247a1dcf99140dbbef1f32e7d7ed08564672761

When converting the output files to an ascii format for input we used an IDL script.

make_ini_file_3D_bintoascii.pro. After editing the file names in the idl script this is run from the idl prompt using:

.r make_ini_file_3D_bintoascii

TODO: write script in matlab/python to do the conversion matlab/python - code convert iput file formats
